Participants will follow demonstrations of various interactive web-based (Web 2.0) environments (including blogs, wikis, and google docs) and have hands-on experience with these tools on their own laptops. Compatibility of these online spaces with the QEP cross-curricular competencies will be presented. As well, participants will leave the workshop with ideas for types of learning projects, transforming existing learning activities, real-life examples of collaborative exchanges, and a directory of available tools.
